From time to time there has
some talk of extending the
jrporate limits of the town and if
e citizens of Dillon are in earnest
tit the matter they should earM,'it
their purpose before the
ct census is taken. We have
i m boasting of a population of
i >m 3000 to 3500, and there is no
nation in The Herald's mind but
t we have that number of instants
within a mile radius, but
present limits extend only half
ile each way from the depot and <
on will onlv be given credit for
number of inhabitants who 1
a ally reside within the half mile
lius. Then again there will be
vera! elections within the next
V months noon the ntiestion of

be necessary to get a bill through
the general assembly to extend the
corporate limits and unles; the bil'
is introduced by the latter part oi
t he present week there is no hope
of getting such a measure through j
the present session. If the citizens
really are in earnest about
the matter now is the time to act.
It will be ten years before the

NOTICE.
ro the Democratic Executive
Committee of Dillon County:
In view of to the necessity of filing
certain county offices notice is
lereby given that there will be a
neeting of the Democratic Exiecu:ive
Committee of Dillon on Monlay,
Feb. 21st. 1910, immediately

arrangements for the holding of
the primary elections prior to the

Will Try for Ellcrbe'i Scat.
Sellers, February 1.?Special:
Senator Thos. I. Rogers, of Marlboro,
was here yesterday on his
way to Columbia to resume his
duties in the upper house. While
here he publicly announced his
intention of being a candidate for
Congress against the present incumbent,
his cousin, the Hon. J.
E. Ellerbe.
The political pot is beginning to
boil in the new county territory.
Every man up there is either a
candidate himself, or he has some
friend who is anxious to serve the
dear people and whose interest he
is pushing. The people of that
section of old Marion have heen
held out of the political crib so long
that they appear to be real hungry
for office.?News and Courier.

Mr. Hamcr For Senate.
Editor Dillon Herald:
Appreciating that it ia of the utmost
importance that the First
Senator of the New County of
Dillon should be one well knowh,
respected and influential among
his fellows; of established reputation
for patriotism, devotion to
duty and interest of the couuty,
and believing that R. P. Hamer,
Jr., possesses these qualifications
to an eminent degree, as voters we
beg to suggest his name, as in all
probability it will be submitted, to
the Democratic voters of the county
for Senator, subject to the rules
of the primary. Mr. Hamer has
declined to submit his name at
this early stage as the primary
does not come off in April but
August, and he refrains from any
action that might indicate an endeavor
to forestall any other by
being an "early bird."
Yours truly,
Voters.
Feb. 7, 1910.
By authority of State Chairman
Jones notice is hereby given that on
Monday, Feb. 21st., 1910, a convention
of the Democratic party of
Dillon county will be he d at Dillon
for the purpose of electing a
member of the state excutive committee
and transacting such other
business as may seem proper.
Townships clubs will plsese take
notice and elect to this convention
dm member for each 25 members
dt fractional part thereof.
